~Chapter Eighteen~
New Life
“I can do this.” Renesmee took a deep breath, trying to prepare herself for the meeting with her aunt
and uncle. “I can do this . . . Oh, God, Jacob, I can’t do this.” She sat on the bed and covered her
face with her hands.
Jacob sat next to her. He hated to see her so nervous. “Ness, you can do this. Remember how good
you did with Billy, Harry, and Sue? This won’t be any different. They’re just humans.”
She looked up at him with terrified eyes. “They’re just humans I’ve known all my life. They’ll take
one look at me and hate me.”
He kissed her head and pulled her closer. “No, they won’t. They love you, and they know what
happened. They’re prepared for this, baby.”
“What if I hurt them? I did well with the others, but what if this is the time I go crazy?”
“What if nothing happens and you’re freaking out over nothing?” He pulled her onto his lap. “Honey,
they’re your family. You can’t shut them out. They just want to know that you’re okay.”
“I’m scared,” she admitted.
He rubbed her arms gently. “I know, baby. I’ll make you a deal. Come with me now to see your aunt
and uncle. If they don’t love you and accept you as much as they did before this happened, I will let
you decide what you get. You can have anything you want; we can hunt something other than elk or
deer, you can go on a shopping spree, or you can do weird and kinky things to me.”
Renesmee laughed. “That sounds like something you would want.”
Jacob smirked. “It’s win-win. But, if they do love and accept you the way they did before, then you
have to promise that you never doubt yourself again. You can’t call yourself a monster or tell me that
you’re not yourself anymore. You are one hell of an amazing, kick-ass woman, Ness. Let yourself
believe that.”
She considered Jacob’s conditions. She knew she would have to face Alice and Jasper eventually.
She nodded and looked up at him. “We have a deal.”
He smiled widely and kissed her lips. “Great; let’s go.” He took her hand, and they walked out the
door to the car.
“I don’t understand why we can’t run,” she complained.
He smirked as he opened the door for her. “If you rip your clothes to shreds again, you’ll be mostly
naked by the time we get there. Are you sure you want your aunt and uncle to see you like that?”
“Good point.” She got into the car.
